Page 37 of Lost In You
After he said that, Mrs. Chasity came through the door, looking confused as hell. Mr. Jasper pulled her to another room to enlighten her, I was sure. Ashanni sat up and kissed my cheek. “Less than a month, we can move into my place. Jasper and Chas gon’ get on your last fucking nerve.”
“I heard that shit, Ashanni!”
She chuckled, and Ali did the same. I could use their sense of humor right now, because my fucking nerves were shot. “Will someone be on Jayceon at all times?”
“Yeah. Jericho is on him and Crew right now. Don’t worry. We will all have y’all covered. If y’all plan to make moves away from the area, just let me know ahead of time. Jungle and Vegas are in Houston and can pick y’all up from there,” Ali said.
“A’ight. If anything progresses, we’ll let y’all know. Just chill out until you hear from me, Skyler, your attorney, or Sidney Taylor.”
We both stood and shook their hands. I couldn’t wait until this shit was done. I just wanted to live my life with Ashanni in peace. Moving on could be stressful enough on its own, but adding all this bullshit to it was about to take me out. I had to protect my family and that included my parents. I was glad they moved my mama and stepdad to my dad’s house. I could only imagine the bullshit that was going down over there.
My mama and Mama Shana probably had them over there about to lose their damn minds. They were a whole mess when they were together. As they left, I got a text from Carter Legend. That was rare. We usually only talked when we saw one another.
I didn’t want to tell Red Squared, because he would probably tell Noni. Maui is out here, and somebody need to come get her before she gets hurt. Mythic out in those streets fucking around. Some ho just sent a DNA request for a baby.I hate to see this shit. My mama done even tried to talk some sense into her. Mythic gon’ drag her ass to hell and back.
I closed my eyes and slowly shook my head, knowing she wasn’t going to be receptive to anyone here either.
She won’t listen to them either, man. They would be making a blank trip. Your best bet, if you want someone to forcefully remove her from the situation, is to tell Bali to call her dad.
I slid my phone back into my pocket as Mr. Jasper and Mrs. Chasity came out of the room they were in, looking all sexually satisfied and shit. I frowned and slightly turned my lips up as he said, “Hater.”
My eyebrows lifted as he made his way to the deck and held up a blunt. When Ashanni rejoined me, she said, “I told you. Their nasty asses don’t ever stop.”
This shit was gonna be torture.
“Bali, what are we gonna do about this shit with Maui?”
“Who the fuck is we? I’m done with that shit. I have a practice and a clinic to get off the ground. Maui is a grown fucking woman. I refuse to forcefully handle her ass again. If she don’t want to do what’s right, she can fuck her life up by herself. Mythic is a bitch ass nigga. I feel like he on some Philly and Kema shit from back in the day but worse.”
I frowned slightly. I didn’t have the slightest clue what she was talking about. I knew Philly because that was PJ’s dad, but I didn’t know the history. I was on the phone with her, trying to get her to go get her sister. Ashanni had refused to talk anymore about it. I knew that Maui’s family knew where she was, because Uncle Legend had called Mr. Storm. They choppedit up like grown men and both decided to wash their hands of the situation, despite how much it hurt to do so.
I didn’t think SS was on that same wave though. He and his cousins were planning something. They were in the back of the diner now, having some sort of private meeting. Ashanni’s brothers were a part of it, along with Ace, Rylan, Christian, Jacob, and KJ and his brothers. There were about ten of them. Jayceon and I had come here for lunch. He was eating his cornbread while I talked to Bali and being sure to pay attention to my surroundings. Ashanni was going to meet us here in a little bit.
“What happened with them?”
“I don’t have time to explain that shit to you, Asad. Find somebody who give a damn. Bye.”
She ended the call, and I slowly shook my head. I didn’t know what Carter Legend and Red Squared saw in those mean ass girls. I thought that shit every time I had to interact with one of them. She was clearly irritated with the whole situation, but I could also hear the hurt in her mean ass tone. Maui was a good girl gone bad it seemed. She was literally going against her entire family for a nigga that was full of shit. It had to be the dick. That was the only thing I could think of. She was dickmatized.
Ashanni walked in, Ali right behind her, and Jayceon noticed her right away. “Miss Shani!”
She smiled big as he left his seat to love on her. I was so happy that he loved her the way he did. She hugged him tightly as Ali smiled. I appreciated how they were looking out for us. When I left the house today, one of them was outside and followed me here. He got out of his vehicle first to check the area, then gave me a nod to know the coast was clear. They were extremely thorough.
I stood from my seat and kissed my baby on her lips and discreetly gripped her ass in the tight ass skirt she wore. Hercheeks reddened as I bit my bottom lip. We’d been at her parents’ house for a couple of days, and I was fiending big time. Watching her ass bounce going up and down the stairs was rough, especially when she was in her pajamas. I’d have to go to the bathroom and jack off.
My mind would simply go back to our night at the Four Seasons and how she bobbed and sucked on my dick like it was popsicle. I pulled her chair out and watched her sit her fine ass in it, then walked around to my seat while my little man tried to push her in further. “That’s good, Jay.”
“Thank you, suga,” she said to him and kissed his cheek.
That lil nigga had the audacity to blush and smile. I slowly shook my head as he took his seat. “You know, if I wasn’t your daddy, I would think you were trying to steal my woman.”
He chuckled and frowned. “Like a girlfriend?”
“Yeah. You tryna take my girlfriend?”
“No way! She’s my new mommy!”
My eyes widened and so did Ashanni’s. I could see her eyes water. She stared up at the ceiling, desperately trying to keep her tears at bay. I didn’t know what to say to Jayceon. This was his second time saying that. This time was different, though, because of all the shit going on with Mila. There was no way he was ever going back to her.
